SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 434,189, dated August 12, 1890. I

Application filed May 31,1890. Serial No. 353,714. (No model.) I

.To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, WILBUR F. LITOH, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city and county of Philadelphia, State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Bottles for Mucilage, Ink, 860., which improvement is fully set forth in the following specification and accompanying drawings.

My invention relates to improvements in the class of bottles for mucilage, ink, 850., having a compartment with an extension for the fluid and brush ordrip.

The invention consists in providing the bottle with a removable cup, and means for retaining the same in position, said cup being adapted to receive the brush and drip, and when desired may be readily cleansed.

It also consists of ascraper connected with said cup and removable with the same, as will be hereinafter set forth.

Figure 1 represents a perspective view of a portion of a mucilage-bottle embodying my invention. Fig. 2 represents a central vertical section thereof on line a; 50, Fig. 1. Fig. 3 represents a perspective view of the lid or cover and attached brush.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several figures.

Referring to the drawings, A designates a mucilage bottle or holder, the same having a compartment B, primarily merging into an extension (3, the wall of the bottle at the place of the junction of the said compartment and its extension being contracted, as at D. Within the extension O isa removable cup 0, which fits snugly therein, and having its sides contracted, as at E, to fit the said contracted portions D of the bottle or holder A. The said cup 0 has an inner flanged wall 0 At the upper end thereof is a scraper F, which projects across the top of the compartment B, and may be cast with the cup or otherwise firmly secured to the same.

It will be seen that the brush may be dipped into the mucilage in the compartment B, and the surplus removed by working the brush on the scraper F, said surplus dropping back into said compartment. After the brush has rendered service, it is placed in the cup 0, the cover of the bottle closing both the cup and the compartment B, the drip from the brush being received by the cup.

When it is required to cleanse the cup, it

may be removed and washed without over-' turning or disturbing the bottle, it being evident that the latter may also be washed or cleansed, the scraper being removed with the cup and is out of the way. WVhen the cup is returned into the extension 0, the scraper is restored to position, and the portions D enter the portions E, thus locking the cup and preventing the same from entering the compart ment B, it being noticed that the wall 0 forms the division between the compartment Band its extension 0. i

Having thus described my invention, what- I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
